Hi Erica,
New to your site. Can I use Navy beans for this recipe or what other kind of white bean is there?

Yes.

Made this tasty soup after having one at a Colombian restaurant. And it definitely was easy to make, especially with ingredients readily in grocery stores. I simmered with the lid off to thicken the soup.
